visualization and simulation tools to complete the entire engineering process. The digital prototyping capabilities of PDS can
help customers design better products, reduce development costs and get to market faster. Three editions of PDS are available
to meet each customer's particular business needs and offers the depth and breadth of the Autodesk portfolio.
• AutoCAD Mechanical
AutoCAD Mechanical software is purpose-built to accelerate the mechanical design process. AutoCAD Mechanical
software offers users significant productivity gains and helps save hours of design time by including all the functionality of
AutoCAD software, in addition to comprehensive libraries of standards-based parts and tools for automating common design
tasks.
• Autodesk Inventor
Autodesk Inventor allows manufacturers to go beyond 3D design to digital prototyping by giving engineers a
comprehensive and flexible set of tools for 3D mechanical design, simulation, analysis, tooling, visualization and
documentation. With Autodesk Inventor, engineers can integrate AutoCAD drawings and model-based design data into a single
digital model, creating a virtual representation of a final product that enables them to validate the form, fit and function of the
product before it is ever built.
• Autodesk Moldflow
The Autodesk Moldflow family of injection molding simulation software provides tools that help manufacturers optimize
the design of plastic parts and injection molds, and study the injection molding process.
M&E
Our M&E segment is comprised of two product groups: Animation and Creative Finishing. Animation products are sold
as software only and provide tools for digital sculpting, modeling, animation, effects, rendering, and compositing for design
visualization, visual effects and games production. Creative Finishing products are primarily sold as turnkey solutions for
editing, finishing and visual effects design and color grading. Principal product offerings in our M&E segment’s Animation and
Creative Finishing product groups included the following during fiscal 2013:
Animation
• Autodesk Maya
Autodesk Maya software provides 3D modeling, animation, effects, rendering and compositing solutions that enable film
and video artists, game developers and design visualization professionals to digitally create engaging, lifelike images, realistic
animations and simulations, and extraordinary visual effects.
• Autodesk 3ds Max
Autodesk 3ds Max software provides 3D modeling, animation and rendering solutions that enable game developers,
design visualization professionals and visual effects artists to digitally create realistic images, animations and complex scenes
and to digitally communicate abstract or complex mechanical, architectural, engineering and construction concepts.
Creative Finishing
• Autodesk Flame, Autodesk Smoke, Autodesk Lustre and Autodesk Flare
Autodesk Flame software is an interactive real-time design, finishing, grading and visual effects solution for supervised
post-production. Autodesk Smoke software is a non-linear and non-compressed online editing, effects and finishing software
application and is used in commercials, music videos, corporate video, film as well as broadcast design projects. Autodesk
Lustre software is a high-performance color grading solution used by artists for creative look development and final color and
lighting effects for both film and television. Autodesk Flare software is a software solution that offers the compositing
capabilities of Flame contributing to faster project completion.
